Summary
Grodzka Street in Kraków, a UNESCO-listed heritage site, serves as a multifaceted palimpsest where sacred and cultural meanings intersect. This study reveals how diverse narratives—rooted in national, local, and personal histories—shape the street's significance for both inhabitants and visitors. Through ethnographic fieldwork and narrative analysis, the research explores the layered understandings of heritage and sacrality embedded in this urban space, contributing to a broader understanding of how cultural memory is constructed and transmitted in historic cityscapes.
